Bio:
I have worked with children of almost every age! From teaching a summer class of preschoolers to teaching twelfth grade ELA, I have seen firsthand the effects that having positive and strong support systems at home can have for students in schools.
My Favorite Children's Book:
Today I Feel Silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day by Jamie Lee Curtis
The most meaningful part of working at EPIC is:
The opportunity to set children up for success by facilitating communication and instilling confidence in the systems they interact with daily.
Personal Mantra:
"If you find a book you really want to read but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." -Toni Morrison
